Semua Bab A Ruling Passion: Mr Tremont's Priceless Little Bride: Bab 881 - Bab 890

Tanya took Jackson’s action as him being too embroiled in a precarious mental conflict to bother with her at the moment. In this state, staying in his place would bear her no development, so she left his house and went back to the apartment. She requested a half-day leave with Eric on her way home and returned to find Tiffany’s possessions gone. The few things that remained were pieces of furniture too large and heavy to be lugged around, such as the double-door fridge Summer had gifted her. Tanya felt nothing, not even a ripple. She would have moved out herself had Tiffany not done it. There was no way the two of them could continue to live under the same roof after all that had transpired. Honestly, she felt happy that the woman was the one who left, for now Tanya did not have to spare some effort finding a new abode. She had not gotten enough sleep last night. Today, she was going to remedy that. She was going to slumber with the fulfilling knowledge that she had successfully

Elusive sentiments flickered in Mark’s visage. “Uh, hem, well… You must always remember, Ari. Never paint all men with a single stroke, and everything always has an outlier, and not every man acts like this—”The corner of Arianne’s lips twitched. “That was totally not what I was asking at all! And also, damn, did you just throw your best bro under the bus like that? For shame, Mark. Anyway, I asked you if there was anything, you know, that is more than what meets the eyes in this whole deal. Could there be some kind of misunderstanding? Is it possible for Tiffie and Jackson to get back together after this ordeal?”“Oh? Oh.” Mark sighed out of relief under his breath. “Er, that depends on the circumstances. From what I know, most men won’t be able to perform at all when overly drunk. From your telling, Tiffany mentioned that Jackson was so heavily imbibed that he basically passed out, yes? Then how could the allegation have happened? I highly doubt it. If sex did happen, it must be w

Tanya twisted the corners of her shirt anxiously. “I don’t know what Tiffany’s told you. You’re closer, so of course, you’d trust her more. I don’t feel like explaining either. It’s already happened anyway. What are you going to do about it?”“Are you implying that you’re hiding something?” Arianne asked. “Tell me then. Don’t worry, I won’t be unfair to you because of Tiffie. I just want to know if you did it on purpose. I know that Jackson certainly didn’t do it on purpose. Besides… Did it really happen? He was extremely drunk. It’s very suspicious…”Tanya bit her lip and replied, “Yes, it did! It doesn’t matter if I did it on purpose or not. It happened. Jackson and I had too much to drink, so it happened. Is that really all that strange to you? No one can say who did it on purpose under these circumstances. No one can wash themselves clean of it…”“You knew that things between Tiffie and Jackson were never truly over; they were still involved. You’re her friend, so why did you ap

Eric stared back at her with an emotionless look on his face. “If you were a victim, or if it was truly an accident, Jackson will provide you with justification. But the truth is, you’re not. You’re not a child anymore. You know what it means for a girl to go to a man’s house at night alone to drink with him. And the man is your friend’s ex, an ex whom she’s still pining over. How innocent could your intentions possibly be in doing something as inappropriate as that? I’ve known Jackson for many years. Do you really think that I wouldn’t understand him? He’d never mistake a face, even when he’s dead drunk. He would never force himself on you. He would never have that notion at all!”Tanya turned around and smiled at him. “Heh… You’re right. You’re absolutely right. I did it on purpose. Thank you for once taking care of me. Goodbye.”Eric pursed his lips and did not say anything more. He felt a weight on his heart as he watched her leave. Was this the very same pure-hearted girl who wa

Tiffany sent Arianne a message when she went back to her room: ‘Jackson’s mother visited me today. She brought me food as usual, then somehow persuaded me into joining her company. It’s a subsidiary branch in the Southern Lake District of South Park, which is pretty far from here. I won’t be coming back so often for now, since the journey to and fro will take a few hours. I’m going to take the job, if nothing happens. I didn’t want to go at first, but she’s been so good to me that I couldn’t refuse. I don’t know how to.’Arianne quickly replied: ‘Since you can’t reject her, you’d better stay. This is between you and his mother. It has nothing to do with him. No need to overthink it. Do your best once you’re there and prove yourself with your own efforts. Don’t let his mother down. By the way, Tanya resigned from Eric’s company after you left. However, she’s still staying in that condo and hasn’t gone out to find a job. It’s very strange. How can she survive without a job?’Tiffany’s
